 Mount Kinabalu Mount Kinabalu Mount Kinabalu

Got to get to the top of the Mo Fo

Borneo Sabah




Well on arrival at Kota Kinabalu the weather was glorious the plane lands with south china sea to your left hand side and a few islands in the distance. There seems to be a lot of work going on in Kota Kinabalu (KK) and in my opinion it will a totally different place in the next ten years. We chilled out in our hotel and waited to meet members of our group who we would be travelling with.

If anyone is reading this and is climbing the mountain I brought all my stuff over with me from the UK but there are a couple of so called mountaineering shops in KK where you can buy ruck sacs torches knives ~Leki walking sticks etc....


Walk was difficult but looking back now I can say that being at the top with such a surreal landscape was definately worth it
